Kit Cars are cars that can be purchased in kit form and assembled
at home. It is common for Kit Car enthusiasts to obtain their material
from several "donor cars". There are a lot of Kit Car enthusiasts out
there and people enter the Kit Car hobby for different reasons. Working
with your hands and assembling something from the beginning can be
extremely relaxing and riding in a car that you have built yourself is
an indescribable experience. Kit Cars are however not for everyone, and
if you know that you become frustrated by having to change your wind
shield wipers a Kit Car might not be a wise idea.
Assembling a Kit
Car can be a way of getting a cheaper car, but you should keep in mind
that you will need a place to work in as well as the necessary tools. A
lot of Kit Cars are assembled not primarily because they are cheaper
than ordinary cars, but because a Kit Car can be made to suit your own
particular needs and fill niches where it is hard to find ordinary cars.
One of the most well known Kit Cars is for instance the Dune Buggy. The
Dune Buggy is also known as Beach Buggy and Sand Rail. This Kit Car is
not intended for high ways; it is a recreational vehicle that can be
used on beaches and sand dunes where ordinary cars experience problems.
The Dune Buggy is small and low-weight and has much larger wheels and
tires than a normal car. The engine is mounted on an open chassis that
is perfect for hot summer days at the beach. The Dune Buggy is usually
constructed from older Volkswagen Beetles.
Kit Cars are also
popular due to the possibility to create a car that resembles historic
or contemporary cars. One of the most frequently replicated cars is the
AC Cobra. The original AC Cobras was powerful and stylish Anglo-American
sports car that was creating during the 1960s. In 1968, the last
Roadster platform was produced which put an end to the AC Cobra since
the AC Cobra was built on this platform. The public had however taken a
liking to the potent and beautiful AC Cobra and Kit Car enthusiast
started to build their own AC Cobras. Today, there exist more Kit Car AC
Cobra cars than original AC Cobra cars. Some of these Kit Cars are
exact replicas while others are only inspired by the original AC Cobra.
Some replicas can even be said to be improved versions of the original
AC Cobra, since the Kit Car builders can utilise the inventions and
automobile engineering advances.
